The whole buildout, step by step.
This is how you build business credit in Michigan when the bank has already said no. Nothing hidden. Nothing skipped.
Screens below illustrate the method. Every file is different.
First, the team reads everything.
Nothing gets built on a file nobody has read. AGT-01 goes through all of it and finds what is blocking approval.
- Whole-file readBefore anything gets built.
- Blockers flaggedThe collections. The mismatches. The gaps.
- Removal strategyWhat to challenge, and in what order.
- Plain wordsYou hear where your file stands.
Then the disputes go out.
This is business credit repair, Detroit style. Round after round until the file is clean enough to build on.
- All 3 bureausEvery round covers all three.
- Unlimited roundsThe team keeps going. There is no cap.
- A report every 30 daysYou see what moved on your score.
- No guessingEach round follows the removal strategy.
Make the business real on paper.
EIN-based business credit starts with a business lenders can look up. If you do not have one yet, the team sets it up.
- LLC and EINSet up for you if you need them.
- ListingsWhat lenders cross-check, set up right the first time.
- Records and licensesOn file before anyone asks.
- DUNS number nextThe business gets a file of its own.
Stack what lenders count.
Net-30 vendor accounts only help if the vendor reports. AGT-04 orders the ones that do and stacks them in a smart order.
- Vendors that reportPayments show up on your business file.
- 15 or moreStacked strategically, not all at once.
- DUNS and PayDexThe stack builds both.
- The targetA PayDex of 80 or higher within 4 months. A target, not a promise.
Watch the file. Pay on time.
A thick file is a file with history. History only counts when every payment lands on time and nothing slips by unseen.
- Always watchingAGT-03 monitors the business credit bureaus.
- Nothing unseenNothing changes on your file without the team knowing.
- On-time scheduleAGT-06 orchestrates payments across every account.
- It compoundsThe profile builds instead of slipping.
Be ready before they ask.
Lenders ask for paperwork. The file that has it waiting moves faster than the file that has to go find it.
- Business planOrganized and waiting.
- Guarantee documentsPersonal-guarantee docs, in order.
- Authorized-user recordsKept with the rest of the file.
- One placeThe supporting file lenders request.

When the file is thick, your Director goes through it and makes the introductions. ThickAFCredit is not a lender. The lender makes the call.
- Matched to published criteriaIntroductions go to independent lenders whose own criteria fit your rebuilt file.
- In the business nameA business line of credit. A business card. A term loan.

Lender words, in plain English.
Thin file
A credit file with too few accounts on it. A lender cannot judge what it cannot see, so a good score can still get a no.
Tradeline
One account on a credit report. Each one shows who you owe and how you pay.
Net-30 vendor account
A supplier lets the business buy now and pay the invoice within 30 days. Only vendors that report those payments build the file.
DUNS number
A nine-digit ID for your business from Dun & Bradstreet. It gives the business a credit file of its own, separate from yours.
PayDex score
Dun & Bradstreet's score for how a business pays its bills. It runs up to 100. A PayDex of 80 means bills get paid on time. Higher means they get paid early.
Questions about the process.
If yours is not here, bring it to the call. That is what the call is for.

A credit file with too few accounts for a lender to judge. You can have a good score and still have a thin file. The buildout adds accounts that report, so there is something to read.
What is a PayDex score?
It is Dun & Bradstreet's score for how a business pays its bills. It runs up to 100. A PayDex of 80 means bills get paid on time. The team targets 80 or higher within 4 months. It is a target, not a promise.
What are net-30 vendor accounts?
Accounts where a supplier lets the business pay the invoice within 30 days. Only vendors that report those payments build the file. AGT-04 orders 15 or more that report and stacks them in a smart order.
